We will only pass your data to third parties in the following circumstances:
- you have provided your explicit consent for us to pass data to a named third party;

In addition, we will only pass data to third parties outside of the EU where appropriate safeguards are in place as defined by Article 46 of the General Data Protection Regulation.
How long we retain your data
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
We take the principles of data minimisation and removal seriously and have internal policies in place to ensure that we only ever ask for the minimum amount of data for the associated purpose and delete that data promptly once it is no longer required.

- withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal information (to the extent such processing is based on consent and consent is the only permissible basis for processing).
If you would like to access the rights listed above, or any other legal rights you have over your data under current legislation, please get in touch with us.
How we protect your data
We look for opportunities to minimise the amount of personal information we hold about you.
